Recently, Hyzon, New Way Trucks, and Recology showcased North America’s first hydrogen fuel cell electric refuse truck to U.S. Department of Energy under Secretary for Infrastructure David Crane, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and U.S. Senator Alex Padilla. The vehicle display was part of a landmark clean energy event hosted by the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems to celebrate the official award of a $12.6 billion investment to create a Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub in California.
“Today, we see not only North America’s first hydrogen-powered refuse truck but also the critical role government plays in making these innovations a reality. When government steps up, the private sector responds, and today is proof of that,” Hyzon CEO Parker Meeks said. “ARCHES’ massive commitment demonstrates how public investment can drive private sector action, accelerating our ability to scale decarbonization efforts now.”

Backed by $1.2 billion in federal funding and $11.4 billion in public and private investments, ARCHES is spearheading one of the most ambitious hydrogen infrastructure projects in the U.S. Under the agreement, ARCHES plans to facilitate a network of clean, renewable hydrogen production sites, including 60 heavy-duty fueling stations and 165 miles of open-access pipelines, to enable the decarbonization of more than 5,000 fuel cell electric trucks. This includes the fuel cell electric refuse collection truck built in partnership between Hyzon and New Way, which is in its first customer trial with Recology. The three companies’ collaboration begins the decarbonization of one of the most demanding industries and makes hydrogen fuel cell electric refuse collection a reality for North America.
